Having worked in medicine for over two decades, I was intruiged that one doc
with whom I work stated that NSAIDs are not to be used for children with
head injuries or obvious contusions. He advised stayed with Acetimenophen--
despite the obvious liver clearance issues.

He also stated irrefutably that ibuprofen is not to be used in babies under
6 months old, even if weight requirements are met.

I would really like opinions on these issues from this very erudite forum.
